Subject: Well read, fun plot, abrupt ending

Gregg Margarite did an amazing job of reading this story and the story itself if written quickly and simply, but with all the necessary details to make you feel as though you're there with the characters.
I enjoyed the story and would love to hear a few more chapters. It's one of those stories where it'd be great if several authors continued with a part 3, each with different endings.
Either way, I highly recommend.
(oh, and if you happen to write your own "Part III," please send me a copy... I'd like to know how you'd complete the story)

This story is a bit odd to listen to, and I found myself asking what I would do if in the same position.
An astronaut is reanimated after 'dying' in a freezing to death space accident. The reason? They need him to testify on behalf of a primative group of humans that live on another planet. Will the astronaut help, or will he side with the native intelligent life on that planet, a group of super intelligent lizards who hunt and train humans like pets.
What would you do?
